            Class A For-Rent Market Trends
          
        
        
          Rents in the Chesapeake Class-A rental market exceeded that of the
        
        
          overall region in the early 2000s. The submarket suffered slightly more
        
        
          than the region during the recession, with average Class A rents
        
        
          dropping to $966. Lost ground was quickly recovered in subsequent
        
        
          years. In 2012, the average asking rent at Class A properties was
        
        
          Vacancy in the submarket has generally mirrored that of the region,
        
        
          showing a slight upward trend from 2000 to 2013. Historically, class A
        
        
          vacancy oscillates around 4%, only rising as high as 6% for the
        
        
          Hampton Roads region in 2008 and 6.5% for Chesapeake in 2006.
        
        
          approximately $1,000.
